Pulling My Hair Out

Good Morning Everyone..

This is going to be a short post today.  I've been having computer programs all weekend.  you know those annoying things that popup all the time telling you your computer has spyware and their program has done a scan of your computer and you should click on the download button to get rid of them...well-someone named grandson#1 or grandson#2 clicked the button...it was called Antivirus 2009 there is also one called Antivirus 2008...apparently my installed software didn't recognize that one!!!

I had to do a complete restore and  lost a lot of things that I didn't have backed up. To get to the important thing....

I goofed on my Heritage Cards and let 2 mistakes slip by before they got to the store.. I have them corrected and they should be back in the store this week..I am getting a list of everyone that purchased the set and will send you a link to get the corrected ones..or you can email me at wordstodelite@gmail.com and send me your order number and receipt number and I will email you the link that way.

I am just so so sorry about this and assure you it wont happen again..I appreciate all of you that buy my word art and thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I must go now and work on my computer and try to get it back in useable shape..you know how that goes...don't forget to wear that smile (even on days like today lol) keep looking up and big much love.  Jazzy

Rainy Day-Sad Day

Good Thursday Morning everyone...its raining here this am..rained off and on all day on Wednesday..and a sad day..My grandsons's are going home today...their Mom, (Angie) got here last night to spend the night and take them home today..Gage cried and cried last night because he doesn't want to go home..guess Nana spoiled him to much and now it makes me feel bad..he was telling her all the things he got to do here he doesn't get to do at home..I had been trying to tell him all week those things were "special going to Nanas house things" and the were special because he only got to do them at Nanas..didn't work..I told him if he lived with me all the time he would have to do things just like he did at home..that didn't work either..he still wants to stay with me..he went to bed crying and it broke my heart..I just hope he doesn't cry when he leaves and get his mom (and me)  all upset..I think Zane is glad to go home..I didn't baby him and give him his way all the time like his dad does..but all in all it was a great trip.. The first time they ever got to stay with me alone..I am so thrilled they moved to Alabama!! I'm just not used to little boys anymore and I think I've gotten to used to living alone..LOL

Boy I have lots of things to show you today..I have a new kit in the store called Heritage Cards..something a bit different but I really like the way they turned out...they are made to coordinate with KimB's Designs By Gone Gents kit but they also work well with other kits and papers.

Heritage Cards Bundle copy

Here's a few layouts done with them

I also made this one to show you how well the cards go with other kits..this beautiful kit is called Ambient Moments and its by Boo Silva (BooLandDesigns) I changed the color of the ribbon.

Grandchildren---What A Treat

Hello.. Hope everyone is having a great day...and that you had a great weekend...I have had the time of my life since Friday...Angie brought Gage and Zane down to spend part of the week with me..its their fall break..and Josh got to get our precious Kaylen..I've got kids hanging on pegs...LOL..Josh, Chase, Gage, Zane and Kaylen..all my grandchildren and great granddaughter..what fun I have had...but I sure am tired..LOL..I've also got miss Kaylen spoiled..no kidding I have, didn't take me long to do that..she doesn't like to be laid down anymore..unless she is asleep...she thinks you should be holding her I'm sitting here now listening to her fuss...she sure wants out of that crib...lol oh what have I done!!!...

I just have to show you a couple of layouts I did of the kids..

grandmothers heart

This is a picture Angie made when Kaylen was staying with her for the weekend..I think its so precious..and I love that smile on their faces..the boys just love her to death..Gage loves to feed her and burp her..have to watch him though..he thinks he is grown and likes to carry her around..it drives him nuts for her to whimper..he wants me to get her immediately and if I don't he grabs her up.. I used a freebie from Chaos Lounge for this one.

always and forever copy

Some of my favorite pictures of Kaylen...I used vines and flowers, glitter border from Chaos Lounge not sure where the paper came from..the white crochet blanket she is laying on is what I made for Gage when he was born..never thought about my great grandchildren using it...

Ok guess I have bragged enough for one day...on to some more goodies..
